Answer: The maximum possible speed v is √2( hν - Ф ) / m

Explanation: You could be referring to the provided explanation, despite the fact that the question isn't comprehensive. When a photon collides with the surface of any metal, it transmits all of its energy to the electron in the atom. The collision causes the electron to travel with a certain amount of kinetic energy. This is referred to as the photoelectric effect. The maximum kinetic energy is calculated using Einstein's equation for the photoelectric effect:

K.E. = hν - Ф

½ mv² = hν - Ф

Hence the maximum possible speed is:

v = √2( hν - Ф ) / m

The water level in a tank is 20 m above the ground. a hose is connected to the bottom of the tank, and the nozzle at the end of

Damm [24]

Answer:

P_(pump) = 98,000 Pa

Explanation:

We are given;

h2 = 30m

h1 = 20m

Density; ρ = 1000 kg/m³

First of all, we know that the sum of the pressures in the tank and the pump is equal to that of the Nozzle,

Thus, it can be expressed as;

P_(tank)+ P_(pump) = P_(nozzle)

Now, the pressure would be given by;

P = ρgh

So,

ρgh_1 + P_(pump) = ρgh_2

Thus,

P_(pump) = ρg(h_2 - h_1)

Plugging in the relevant values to obtain;

P_(pump) = 1000•9.8(30 - 20)

P_(pump) = 98,000 Pa

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

U = - G m M / r

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy is given by the expression

U = - G m₁ m₂ / r

dodne G is the gravitational cosntnate (G = 6.67 10⁻¹¹¹), m and m are the mass of the bodies involved

subtype the given values

A spaceship is traveling through deep space towards a space station and needs to make a course correction to go around a nebula.

expeople1 [14]

Answer:

Magnitude = 3.64 × $10^6$

စ = 43.9°

Explanation:

given data

ship to travel = 1.7 × $10^6$ kilometers

turn = 70°

travel an additional = 2.7 × $10^6$ kilometers

solution

we will consider here

Px = 1.7 × $10^6$

Py = 0

Qx =2.7 × $10^6$ cos(70)

Qy= 2.7 × $10^6$ sin(70)

so that

Hx = Px + Qx ............1

Hx = 2.62 × $10^6$

and

Hy = Py + Qy ..........2

Hy = 2.53 × $10^6$

so Magnitude = $\sqrt{((2.62 \times 10^6 )^2+(2.53 \times 10^6)^2)}$

Magnitude = 3.64 ×

so direction will be

tan စ = Hy ÷ Hx ......................3

tan စ = $\frac{2.53}{2.62}$

tan စ = 0.9656

စ = 43.9°
